Mystery men and empty promises: 10 stories you want to read from this week

Connoisseurs of art might tell you that sometimes it's more important to look for what's not included in a work than what is. This week Ars took a stab at revealing the shadows on the wall. A serial hacker told us that Jelly Bean will make malicious attacks on Android users more difficult, we went in search of the conspicuously quiet owner of FunnyJunk, the creators of Fez decided not to issue a critical patch to their game, and our science editor took a look at how scientists in this day and age could forge massive amounts of data and come off Scot-free (for a time).

We didn't just go in search of the unknown and the purposely obfuscated though. The other big news this week was that Microsoft made the preview of its 2013 office suite available to review by our staff, and we wrote many words on all the good and bad contained therein.
